Como Un Duende

I never asked to be born and when I asked, no one gave it to me
His body is the bones that the earth ate
He already has enough hunger and pain
His mind is like a balloon, it flies and flies without stopping
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Children without childhood and without cake
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Living among garbage doesn't seem real

He is a gray-skinned boy
No one, no home
Sleeping on the sidewalks waking up without dreaming
He's been around for centuries and everything is still the same
As he is a poor child, his sadness is very normal
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
He is a child without childhood and without cake
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
It seems like a fantasy but it's a real boy

He has nowhere to be
But where to go?
His only fortune is his paper dreams
Today he asks the Sun for the day to come soon
He is a man and not a goblin, he asks for nothing more than a world
Just one world
One world
Let nothing else calm your desire
Just one world
One world
They have us divided but the world turns the same

He is a child like any other
Only without a nice school
Give him a book and he will touch a star
What will be
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Feed him and he will think
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Let him dream and a star will reach
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
He is a child without childhood and without cake
It's like a goblin looks like a goblin
Teach him to read and this world will change
It will change, it will change, it will change
